    Default Mix and Match Troops/Nations

    Little bored this evening and had a quick question for you all.

    If you could take your favorite nation and add one troop from another what would it be.

    I'd go Egypt and take Moorish Camel Gunners.

    Denmark with Mongol Heavy Horse Archers. The Danes would be unstoppable with uber infantry, cavalry, and archers.

    I'd either go the route of ztajerski, or:
    Russia with Camel Gunners
    Scotland with Cossack Musketeers
    Scotland with Camel Gunners
    Byzantium with Cossack Musketeers
    Byzantium with Camel Gunners
    Sicily with Camel Gunners

    Do you actually need to add any unit to the slave faction? :p They have every single unit in game.

    As for standard playable factions though, I'd go for England with Swiss Guards or England with Elephant Artillery.

    Imagine staked circle filled with retinue longbows and having a few elephant arties to take care of enemy siege equip.

    How about this?

    Replace general units with the Timurid Elephant Artillery. Battles would be so funny since whoever has the more generals will win and kings will be near impossible to kill with their high bodyguard count and multiple hitpoints.

    Either Byzantines with Cossack Musketeers or Spanish with Vardariotai.
